Chapter 1064: Chapter 1062- Army Has No Fighting Spirit

“Wise and valiant? I don’t think so…”

Jin Buhui shook his head in disagreement. “If he really was valiant and wise then he shouldn’t have sent troops! His majesty is old and Zhu Zi just needs a dumb person who is willing to sacrifice themselves for the Confucian Faction!”

The expressions of the people present all changed, they didn’t expect that Jin Buhui would so bold.

“Nonsense! His majesty has ruled for a hundred years, trying his best and causing us to prosper. Who in the world is not grateful for him? How is he something someone like you can talk about?”

“His majesty is a Saint Ruler, everyone can see that…”

“Saint Ruler?”

Jin Buhui laughed while looking outside of the city at the people with numb expressions. “Whether or not he’s a Saint Ruler is not up to people like you! Are these things that a Saint Ruler does? No clothes to keep warm, no food to keep full. Is this even a proper Ruling Era?”

The green-shirted prince was still laughing coldly, his eyes filled with a playful expression. “So in your eyes, his majesty is preposterous and unruly. But the Great Gan Ruler Zong Shou is the true wise ruler?”

Jin Buhui was stunned and he looked ahead. His eyes were also filled with mocking intent. He wanted to place Jin Buhui into a death trap!

If he said yes, then no matter whether or not Emperor Yuanchen won or lost, Jin Buhui wouldn’t be able to live.

Even those Confucians wouldn’t let him off.

So what? What did he have to fear?

“His majesty might have been a good lord when he was young but he is old and ignorant now! Although the Great Gan Ruler is ruling a barbarian land, he made them prosper in ten years. People don’t have to close their doors and won’t be afraid of getting stolen from. Even though he expanded by millions of miles, it didn’t affect the lives of the people. That is a true ruler! A true Saint Lord!”

The people in the carriage were in an uproar and they all exploded.

“Preposterous!”

“A person who is prepared to burn books and wipe out Confucianism, to wipe out my Confucian Faction, in your eyes, he is a Saint Ruler?”

“In what regard do you hold my Confucian Faction and Saint Zhu Zi?”

“This kid sent a letter to talk about the pros and cons of aristocratic families getting strong, I thought he was a knowledgeable person with backbone. Who knew that he was the exact same as Zong Shou!”

“This Jin Buhui really is crazy!”

“Kill him! We must behead him here to send a signal!”

“No wonder Zuoxin wanted to kick him out of the faction. How could such a person be listed under our sect?”

“He is a sinner!”

“His majesty was really wrong in the past!”

Jin Buhui was stunned, Zuoxin had kicked him out from the faction? He then broke into a laugh, wasn’t that expected?

“HAHAHA! The Great Gan’s ruler, Zong Shou, is wise?”

That green-shirted prince laughed out loud, his eyes filled with delight. “However, this so-called wise ruler spent billions of gold before the war to build a Jiuchi Palace at the south of Min River. He searched and took in many beauties from various tribes and created a wine pool and meat forest. I heard that he has been enjoying life every day. He is simply a barbaric ruler, how can you compare him to a Saint Ruler?”

“Jiuchi Palace?”

Jin Buhui was stunned. With Zong Shou’s personality, he probably would do something like the wine pool and meat forest. However, he definitely wouldn’t do so at such a time!

Was it a trap from him? That fellow definitely wouldn’t do something so pointless.

He was shocked and wanted to stand up, but then, he was locked down and restricted by the chains.

He remembered that he wasn’t the Censorate Minister that could hand letters up to the Emperor anymore.

Moreover, even if he did, it would still take dozens of days to arrive on his table.

With his personality, the Emperor Yuanchen probably wouldn’t bother about it.

“How amusing!”

Jin Buhui laughed out loud but it sounded like he was crying.

“I stick to my words, if the Great Shang wins this battle then just dig out my eyes!”

His voice was really sharp, causing the Yang surnamed green-shirted prince to be shocked.

He shook his head like the other people. This person had truly gone mad…

※※※※

In the early morning, Zong Shou woke from his meditation. The God Refined Sword still floated in front of him, but there was no sharp killing intent like before.

It didn’t disappear but was retracted within. What replaced it was an aura which charged straight for the life source, it was both dangerous and tough to predict.

In the end, he still succeeded. He successfully changed the Massacring Sword Intent to the Slaying Sword Intent!

Those few End Realm cultivators won’t be able to interfere in this battle. They could only rely on the troops on both sides.

To vent the frustration in his heart, he could only rely on his sword.

What a waste, although this Slaying Sword Intent also reached Late Spirit Realm, he was unable to totally merge it together.

What he regretted more was that when the God Refined Sword was merged into the sword formation, he was unable to use it. That second soul, the Illusionary Soul Sword, was still at Shen Yuexuan’s and hadn’t been fully refined.

There was not enough time left and it seemed like it would be tough for him to have any further improvement.

Things of the world were just like that. Not everything could be perfect.

He kept the God Refined Sword and he saw Kong Yao wearing silver armor standing quietly beside him. Her expression was in a daze as she looked at him.

Zong Shou’s eyes lit up before he smiled. “What are you looking at? Are you charmed by me?”

“How shameless!”

Kong Yao exclaimed and then said solemnly, “An hour ago, the Great Shang army arrived outside the palace! Emperor Yuanchen is among them.”

Zong Shou felt it. An hour ago, Heaven and Earth was locked down by a spiritual formation. A total of nineteen Saint Realm Venerables locked down this part of space.

Since both sides were around the same strength, the Great Gan could handle it.

However, in terms of Saint Realm, those from the Common People’s Path and Sword Sect were lacking.

That was even after the three factions used several Saint Realm experts to use the Thousand Mile Movement Armor Technique.

If not, they could’ve been much stronger.

This was also the reason why the Great Shang and the Confucian Faction dared to travel all the way here and surround him.

Since they couldn’t defeat them at the End Realm and Saint Realm level, then it would depend on the others.

They blocked off the area, using their absolute strength in terms of Dao Soldiers to kill him here.

Be it them or the enemy, both sides had lined up.

“How many of them came?”

“Eight hundred thousand! Half of them are Dao Soldiers, double that of the ones we sent!”

A weird expression flashed across her brow, Great Shang sent more troops than expected to sneak attack.

This also meant that if they won, the spine of the Great Shang would be totally shattered!

Zong Shou also took in a deep cold breath. Eight hundred thousand people, the Great Shang and the three factions really respected him.

Just the mind stones used up alone would be enough for him to use the Book of Eon for a hundred years.

Luckily, their actual combat strength difference wasn’t much.

“Let’s go out to take a look!”

He headed out. However, he wouldn’t have face if he stood on a sword. There were carriages and also a full ritual.

It was really beautiful and majestic. Who knew how much money did that Zhang Huai fellow use again.

The moment he exited, he felt killing intent charging into the skies. A full million troops lined up there, looking really strong and suppressive. At a glance, vital energy formed into pillars and struck upwards.

Zong Shou subconsciously thought about his battle against Xiang Yu at Peng City when he recruited the Avici Throne.

The battlefield in front of him was no different from the aura and atmosphere of that ancient battle.

His jade carriage was a thousand foot off the ground and he was able to look at the entire battlefield clearly.

Just the Dao Soldiers alone were four hundred and fifty thousand. There were two hundred and fifty Huang Grade, and two hundred thousand Xuan Grade. The rest were all elites chosen from the Great Shang border armies with Grade Three as its main bulk, and at least twenty percent were Grade Four.

Under him, he had close to two hundred thousand Dao Soldiers.

The rest were all strong elites too.

Zong Shou looked out and he was attracted by the left-wing on his side.

“Just thirty thousand Blood Cloud Cavalry to fight their right-wing?”

The right-wing apart from the sixty-five thousand Purple Qilin Flame Spear Cavalry were close to twenty thousand Xuan Grade Cavalry from the various aristocratic families. Apart from that, there were a hundred thousand elites.

They were pretty much fighting one against six!

Zong Yuan was holding a blood-colored halberd and quietly standing in front of the entire army.

This one person alone seemed as strong as ten thousand troops.

Zong Shou scratched his head and released that little puppy. It looked down at a loss, and when it saw those seventy thousand Xuan Flame Golden Qilin Beasts, it squinted in disdain.

It didn’t regard them at all, and like a pug, it jumped into his arms and licked his face. It smelled Zong Shou’s energy, looking totally drunk in it.

Zong Shou was speechless and could only allow it to do that.

He found it weird, this puppy mainly ate on the good energy in the world. What did he do? Why was so much good energy gathered in his King Path’s Energy?

Was it because he was fighting the Great Shang?

As expected! He was fighting against immoral people and gained the hearts of the people.

Thinking about that, the soldiers’ faces were mostly nervous.

They all snuck glances at the left-wing. Although they were acting calm, hesitation still appeared in their eyes.

Zong Shou instantly understood and knew that they were worried that the left-wing was too weak and would be crushed.

Someone who didn’t have much strategic knowledge could tell. Even the famous Blood Cloud Cavalry definitely wouldn’t be able to fight Xuan Grade Dao Soldiers three times their numbers.

If not for Kong Yao and her reputation, these people would have already lost their fighting spirit.

Zong Shou was stunned. He missed out this point and it seemed like he had to use his trump card earlier.

There were occasionally people who would turn around and look at the majestic palace. They frowned, even feeling heart pained.

A portion of them looked at the opposing army in fear.

Zong Shou sighed and was worried. “Is this army out of fighting spirit?”

Kong Yao shook her head. “We have no choice. However, that might not be the case!”

Zong Shou didn’t bother and continued to look. The right-wing was the Moyang Cavalry, Common People’s Xuan Dragon Warriors. Although they were the strongest, they were led by a commander that Zong Shou didn’t recognise.

The middle was four hundred thousand heavy armor elites. The commander was Ren Tianxing.
